The improved Profile View displays intricate details about color gamuts, helping users visualize their availabe range of color in a 3D CIE Lab color space. This dynamic feature helps users set realistic customer expectations about what colors can be achieved, helping to reduce wasted ink and media.

Improved PSS Halftoning

SoftRIP version 6.5 includes improvements to Wasatch's Precision Stochastic Screens halftone method (PSS). This update combines the advantages of Error Diffusion with the full speed and other quality advantages of PSS.

These input profiles enable users to achieve consistent, high quality color with profiles in RGB, CMYK, Web Coated SWOP, and Japan Color, to name a few.

Faster Repeats

The Repeats feature of Wasatch SoftRIP TX has a new Performance Mode that can increase the rate of output by up to ten times and can help when slower computers are used for textile printing. With advanced re-sampling that produces seamless repeats and this new Performance Mode, SoftRIP is well-prepared for the coming generation of fixed-array high-speed textile printers.
